Maybe so and if they want to revive the series that's fine. But still it doesn't sense to do that considering BTL is still being shown.


Anyway the speical could of been better. But I don't think anything was cut out. They probably made it with the purpose for stations to break to their pledge drives. It's too bad not everybody was interviewed. None of the EC kids were at all. Well I guess it's beeter than nothing at all.

It was cut, and for one simple reason... well, two, but they're both related. The Pledge breaks. Firstly, they had to cut for time to have those breaks in there, and secondly, what better way to get pledges then to offer the same special with "Added interviews and clips."

I wish I had the cash to pledge PBS. I'd as for the $350 2 box and special DVD set.

By the way even though the Electric Company Volume 2 box set includes interviews, this is a new special not included on either of the two box sets. Maybe if there is a Volume 3 it would be featured there.
